This was one of the best hotels we have stayed at. The hotel was so cozy and the staff was excellent. The location was very central to all the places we visited during our stay and even though you are right next to Times Square once you get into the hotel and your room it was peaceful and quiet. Would highly recommend this property.

The BEST place to stay in the theater district! A small hotel with wonderful amenities -- particularly the second floor lounge where a continental breakfast is provided by a very friendly staff and snacks and coffee/water are available 24/7 in a cozy living room setting. While the rooms are not large, they are well-equipped and maintained. An easy walk to all theaters and restaurants.

Beautiful hotel. Like an oasis in the heart of New York. 2 minute walk to Times Square but so quiet and relaxing. Staff were fabulous and nothing was too much trouble. Coming back to the hotel after exploring NYC all day was great with cold drinks, coffee , tea and snacks on offer all day and night was amazing- all hotels should do this!

Everything you want from a Manhattan Times Square property. Room was quaint. Every staff member attentive and friendly. Twenty steps from Broadway. Rick's breakfast lounge fantastic. Excellent adult property. Great bar and restaurant on either side of hotel.

Wonderful hotel with a sense of the old Mew York.

Stayed for 4 nights, loved it! The location is perfect, right by the heart of Time Square and the Broadway, but the rooms are tugged in, surprisingly quiet. The impeccably dressed staff are courteous and friendly. The room is not big, but ample space for the two of us. The entire hotel is quaint, comfortable, and all the old New York quality and charm is well preserved and carefully maintained.

I will preface this by saying that as a former New Yorker, I *hate* staying around Times Square - usually. The Casablanca was a respite! Don't be fooled by the first-glace shabbiness of the lobby. The hotel is squeaky-clean, the service is what you'd expect from a hotel 5x the price, the breakfast is lovely - I was genuinely impressed. As you'd expect, the rooms are small, but no more than other NY hotels. Truly an excellent stay.

I was recommended this hotel by a friend who had stayed there. Rooms are not large or luxurious but they are comfortable and clean. The staff was so accommodating and I really liked they had a nice continental breakfast each morning where you could get to know fellow travelers. Another plus was Tony’s Italian restaurant right next-door – a great place to end the day at the bar with friendly bartenders.

Ideal location

This hotel is in a fab location. It’s literally just off Times Square. We walked everywhere. They have a free breakfast plus this lounge is available all day long offering teas/coffee/water/fruit/pasteries The staff are all very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.
